The first Gratitude Sunday post of 2012. Happy New Year everyone! This week I was especially grateful that my family gave me two full days by myself at the Breckenridge rental to organize for the year.

What a week! A wonderful Thanksgiving in Virginia with the in-laws, a dinner out with my best friend, and MICHIGAN BEAT OHIO STATE!

Four years ago, in November 2007, my daughter gave me a precious gift. My father had passed away at the end of that September. Immediately after returning from his funeral, Phil and I had to move into my mother’s very small home with our two kids (then 1 and 4) because our house had suffered [...]

Oh how I hate Ohio State! My parents used to joke that my first words were not “mommy” or “daddy,” but “Go Blue!” I am a born and bred Michigan Wolverine who grew up in Michigan and then went on to attend The University of Michigan. Maize and blue courses in my veins. Michigan football [...]
